Daniel is a convert of mine. he got baptized in the beginning of february. he has stomach cancer, we have come really close, he is awesome we went on saturday to his house and he had a TIUGHT gift for me. when he was 15 he had found a book of mormon at an abandoned house,he says he had been reading it year before i was born but never looked for the missionaries till we showed up at his house. he dedicated the book for me and gave it to me. the book is about 50 years old. iam pretty stoked he is awesome; this just surprised me cause he had been reading the book years before i came and this shows how god just prepares people to listen to his gospel.

WINTE IS HERE AND ALOT OF OLD PEOPLE IN THE TOWN ARE ASKING US TO CHOP THEIR WOOD FOR THE WINTER. MY HAND ARE FULL OF BLISTERS BUT ITS OKAY. THEY ARE HAPPY AND SOME ARE LISTENING TO US CAUSE OF THE SERVICE WE ARE DOING!!!!
